$ talks and it is going to be the big boys and everyone else. The focus has been on that happening in football, but it'll happen in basketball too. Just give it time.

I would welcome a change. I think all tournament games should be neutral sites. Even CM said if our game was anywhere but Baton Rouge we would've won, and I agree.

MTSU
Sifa Ineza, 5’11, G, Soph. (1.9 ppg)
Zahira Arizmendi Rubio, 5’8, G, Fr. (2.5 ppg)

Say goodbye to Learfield and hello to Van Wagner.

While it was nice to be part of Learfield, they obviously focus more on their big boys. IE Power schools.
VW focuses on G5 and lower schools. So that could be a plus with them understanding us. They have agreements with several MAC schools, Liberty, Temple, etc.
Looks like they will be managing coach's shows as well.


Here is an article on WMU and Kent regarding some of the $ involved.

If you vote no explain.

I know this is redundant to a thread in the Lady Raider Forum but don’t want my point of the comparison to CM’s handling our Men’s Basketball Coach situation to put any stench on our fine WBB Coaching staff.

The Vols fired their WBB Coach, Kellie Harper, after 5 years, 4 NCAA appearances (2nd round, Sweet 16, Sweet 16, 2nd Round, (108-52), (53-24).

They will pay her $1.1MM through 2027.

Meanwhile in Murfreesboro………..the Men’s Head Basketball Coach gets another free pass after 4 losing seasons in 6, no NCAA appearances and an overall record at MTSU of (82-105), (46-60).

We have crazy people running this show.

Middle Tennessee will be playing in ABC's Sunday NCAA double header.

South Carolina vs North Carolina: 12 pm

Middle Tennessee vs LSU: 2 pm

outside courts weather permitting

They had me for a second and then I remembered the date. LOL

Looks like booster/sponsor Jonathan McGuire, who owns the area McDonald's, has laid the foundation for a collective.

I guess we have to up our spending to compete at the G5 level. JMU spending is insane... https://herosports.com/fcs-football-top-teams-least-subsidized-bzbz/

Can't wait to see her back next year. She is already great, and she will be even better in October when the new season tips off!

Would take him back in a heartbeat personally. DL could use some help and he had a strong year last season at defensive end

Looks like Steve Lutz at WKU is a one and done. Rumor has it that he is about to bolt for Oklahoma state. Really hate that for them…..

Guard that just won a state championship in the Murphy Center for Dyersburg…

We've seen enough. Not interested in giving all the reasons why he needs to go, I would say most are painfully obvious by this point. Put simply, he doesn't have the chops to recruit or coach at this level. He's had ample time to prove his worth and has not done so. I appreciate his time and efforts here, I really do. He seems like a nice guy and all that but his teams just have not been good.

There's a great coaching candidate out there who is a proven winner at our level....in fact he won and won big when he was coaching for us. Kermit Davis.

Let's go get'em
